What you're actually getting
Henry Weston's Vintage is not your average supermarket cider. It's 8.2% ABV, comes in proper 500ml glass bottles, and tastes like someone actually thought about it. Tannins, a bit of funk, dry finish. More like a decent farmhouse cider than anything you'd find in a plastic pint cup at a festival.
The 12-pack via Subscribe & Save brings it down to around £13.95, which for this quality is honestly pretty good. That's roughly £1.16 a bottle for something that'd comfortably sit on a restaurant menu.
Who this is actually for
If you're a fan of Aspall, Sandford Orchards, or anything that tastes of actual apples rather than apple-flavoured sugar water, you'll be at home here. I've had a few of these on a warm afternoon in the garden and they hold up properly.
Not for everyone, though. If you want something light and sessionable this isn't it. At 8.2% you're having two of these and calling it a night. Also, Subscribe & Save means you're committing to repeat deliveries, so worth remembering to cancel or adjust if you don't want a garage full of cider. (Although, honestly, worse problems to have.)
The honest reservation
No massive price history to benchmark against here, and the "with voucher" caveat means the final price depends on whether that coupon is still live when you order. Check before you click. Still, the community heat on HotUKDeals suggests people have been bagging it successfully, so it's not half bad as deals go.
